Late evening on hot and humid August evening in Nebraska. Warnings popped up about an hour before this storm was even visible to the eye over the horizon at sunset.

 

Spectacular Colors emitting from this stacked supercell. Cloud to Cloud Lightning shooting off every few seconds made this a storm chasers dreamscape.

 

Gear in hand that evening I traveled north out of Odessa Nebraska. Now about 2 miles to the east of Amherst Nebraska. This storm was strengthening and moving almost due south, southeast, meaning it was coming right at my location.

 

It would be a Historic Event to capture! Now remastered to the original color with no enhancements. Enjoy!

*** Personal Note ***

This is the original set back in 2014. If there was any type of editing done, I used the free Avery photo editor here Flickr. My Opinion... it wasn't the best but I had no prior knowledge of editing them back then. Plus I only shot in .jpg format not in .raw and I didn't do the best by over coloring and over saturation. There are some in this set this way. I was very under experienced in photo editing back then.

***

 

Always good storm chasing stories to tell about my weather adventures in 2014.

 

Days right after my knee replacement... Home from the hospital & I definitely wasn't supposed to be out and about. Knee was almost in a cast and I wasn't supposed to be doing anything to aggravate the situation. Though my quest for severe weather never ends and I wasn't going to miss another possible chase especially when its in my backyard. This storm was going to be a photogenic monster... Decision was made & off I went.

 

Stepped out to the front of the house and directly due southeast of Kearney was this incredible thunderhead display on the back side of this storm. The sun had finally peaked out from the western cloud cover and was really illuminating the back side of this storm.

 

Another epic set of thunderstorm captures from South Central Nebraska. Though I paid for it with my knee just being replaced. I was super sore and the swelling was unreal a few days after this event. All worth it when it comes to what epic views I caught storm chasing on that particular day!

I was late to the game on this one after the mesoscale discussion had everything to my east and models had cells developing into northern Kansas. I took the risk and missed out on the eastern Nebraska severe weather that afternoon.

 

Though I was late I wasn't out of the game as I approached from the south back into Nebraska and got into position for the severe warned cells that had just produced a tornado 25 mins before my arrival to my north. Excellent structure as the cells moved to the due south... I was in for a supercell photographic treat!

We had to pack up and move south via Hwy 283 South then Head due east of Hwy 89. This route takes us though Beaver City, Orleans, and eventually just north of Alma Nebraska.

 

Now just west of Orleans Nebraska. Meso on this storm was getting well defined. Definite rotation and we were under it. Pulled ahead of the storm about 5 to 6 miles to get this next set of jaw dropping images.

Had to get south, as this storm just popped a tor warning. I had the perfect view, and in the perfect position. Hwy 61 southbound was my best route to intercept.

 

I got far enough ahead of this storm. Pulled off to the side to capture this developing wall cloud. I thought I was going to be lucky enough to catch another tornado this day, but it wasn't to be. It would eventually become rain wrapped and if it did produce a tornado, I couldn't see it.

Thunderset = Cloudscapes after thunderstorm during a sunset.

 

Well its been a weird year for weather. No severe storms yet in 2020 to come into south central Nebraska. That alone is strange. Though after the past few years of flooding and other severe weather events. It is good to have a break from all of what mother nature has dished out to us here in the central plains of the US.

 

I haven't posted any new video for awhile so I thought it was time to pull out the 4k and get some practice in before our severe weather season starts... eventually. Dying thunderstorms, non severe were passing over, giving us some much needed spring moisture.

 

Oh the sky was talking and I couldn't resist getting this sunset. Another small set of photographic captures of this Nebraska Thunderset.

What was an Epic day of Storm and Sky on the Eastern Plains of Colorado.

 

We had a late start to get to our destination of Goodland Kansas that afternoon. Though with that said we did see one Landspout / Tornado just to the south of Burlington Colorado. Of couse we would have luv'd to see some of the naders about 100 miles to our west but we didn't plan this one out correctly to do so.

 

Bumped into Legendary storm chaster Danial Shaw from Down Under... as he pulled up next to us shortly after we got there. I pretty sure he caught what we could see south of Burlington up close and personal.

 

Storm went outflow dominate as it squeezed its way into northwest Kansas. We ended this days chase between St. Francis and Bird City Kansas.

Day 6 in a row of severe storms with our chase day starting northern Kansas.

 

Good friend and fellow storm chaser Chuck Patient was on the ride along that day.

 

We had gone through a few good rain bans on the way south out of Nebraska into northern Kansas when out of the blue just to the west of our location this incredible wall cloud formed briefly, and stuck around for a few minutes before it became rain wrapped.

 

As far as I know this did not produce a funnel, but the rotation sure was incredible to watch live!

What an epic day turned to and outstanding night...

 

I had an early rise to April 6, 2019 as I spent my day at the 2019 UNL (University of Nebraska) @ Lincoln Severe Weather Symposium. Met some incredible people as a few thousand people came by our booth for StormViewLive and SVLMedia.

 

We were to have storms pop south of Lincoln after the event but non of them went severe. The HRRR map models had promise but I decided to head back to Kearney for the night event.

 

Though I was beet and extremely tired I went out for a few hours and stuck close to home. I should have traveled south down the Nebraska Kansas Border, due to the severity of the storm but it was much later in the night and I had to get some sleep.

 

I did capture a few nice shots as some of the storms did produce some nice lightning right over the city of Kearney.

June 2020 coming to a close. Though mother nature is just ramping up storms out here on the plains of Nebraska.

 

Another afternoon of severe weather and parts of Central and South Central Nebraska would be under the gun later that evening. Gear ready and packed we were off for another Severe Weather Adventure!

 

Though the storms we wanted to catch that afternoon decided to form and then weaken then form to our due north northwest again for the afternoon. Too far north for us to chase as they were developing and moving fast northwest.

 

Caught would we could for that afternoon and waited for the lightning fest that would be to the southeast and east of Kearney. No direct intercept this day... But mother nature was talking...

Now about 30 miles north on Hwy 21 north of Lexington Nebraska. I seriously really wanted to stop several times to watch this storm develop, it had some incredible structure. But I knew not to. I would be rewarded for my patience....

 

This storm had significantly developed south of my location and NWS also just reissued severe thunderstorm warnings on these cells

 

3rd and final storm of my chase that day. Some nice gems in this set of captures! Enjoy!

Late Night Storm Chasing... not really, this was just a few blocks from my home. Though a week after my injury, it was effecting my health. Severe back and neck pain due to the infection spreading... I still challenged myself to get out. It was painful but as you see, I was more than successful. It was definitely worth my time to get out that late night. I needed to do so, my spirit need to be recharged.

 

Beautiful crystal blue lightning illuminated the night as the arcus (shelf cloud) approached from the due west. Got to my location and set up and went to town... Oh was this worth it!!!

 

This storm was severe warned and was moving almost west / west southeast from my pov. Just on the outskirts of Buffalo County, it was maturing & gaining strength. One can clearly see the base of this storm in this part, this set of captures. On radar this had rotation detected. I've seen this before, tons of wicked good forked CG lightning strikes extruding from the base of this storm. I thought I was going to see a night nader move right in front of my location. Instead she didn't drop anything, but you can sure witness the rotation in these captures....

Another Epic Chase day in Nebraska....

 

Along with fellow chaser Myles Nelson, we had a small jaunt from Kearney out to the western skies of Nebraska. We met up with fellow chaser Aaron Edwards just to the south of the Sutherland Power-plant to set up shot a few hours before all the action began. We were waiting for the first cells to produce by Grant and Hershy Nebraska. They did form and the Grant Supercell was producing but it was traveling close to 60+ knots to the due north. Even if we wanted to catch this cell it was moving way to fast. So after a short broadcast out to Kent Boughton ABC NTV Affiliate. We packed up gear and started to head to the southeast towards Stockville Nebraska.

 

Tornado had already pushed through the McCook Nebraska area and we were in range to intercept. Though on way there, just on the outside of Stockville, we had to punch through a nasty hail core. We originally though we hit a deer or something else but once we got to the eastern edge of Stockville, we noticed we had a large pheasant buried into my front grill. I didn't know the extent of damage till we got back to Kearney that evening. That being said, we had the rotating supercell coming in from the southwest and were were planning on punching the core again. When fellow chaser Chuck Patient met up with us he had 2 inch diameter hail stones that they had just went through we had decided not to. It was a wise decision, and we eventually headed east.

 

Now I usually don't do country roads anymore due to the fact... If we get stuck we would be there for a long time and I didn't want to miss out on this event. But we did it anyway.... and just a few miles to the east of Stockville we headed north. It was a good decision due to being on the southeast side of this cell, we were in perfect position to intercept and we did. Far enough away from the RFD we had a perfect view of the Stockville / Farnam Torando from its birth.... Though we had to avoid other chasers, we successfully navigated to a good place for some excellent footage. Probably the best footage I've caught since the 2017 Tornado outbreak in Cheyenne Wyoming.

 

We got a little close... actually we had to get under and in front of it again. Yes a little dangerous but again I've been doing this a LONG time and I don't take risks that will get us killed. We had finally got back to a point in front of the rotating base just north of Farnam and where heading for the next intercept in Cozad Nebraska.

 

I-80 Eastbound we had to punch through the core again and we got lucky. Minutes before this cell produced another tornado we got just to the east of Cozad Nebraska to catch the funnel to the east of town. Not wanting to punch the core again... and only about a 1/2 hour of light left. We decided that we had caught what we wanted that day and head back to Kearney.

 

Though this cell was still raging late into the night. It had produced another tornado by the Oconto Nebraska area. Even if we wanted to chase this there wasn't adequate roadways to travel north and we would have never caught up to it again. To say the least, it was another epic storm chasing day in Nebraska.

 

Final note on these storms... that NWS had the Stockville/Farnam Tornado rated at a EF-1. That is how I have it listed in the VIDEO. Though reports last night confirmed it was and EF-3 with sufficient damage to property.

We were to have storm cells develop on this day, and they were predicted not to be severe. They were not... Though when the perfect opportunity for light & shadow comes into view, I couldn't resist.

 

I grabbed my gear and set out to capture some of the beautiful landscape/cloudscapes from May 2015. The storm cells were developing through south central Nebraska were weak but highly photogenic.

Early May ... 2024

 

These dramatic mammatus storm clouds were gathering in a twilight sky as the sun was about to set. I was headed home!

 

The lowered light levels create a contrast with the darkening clouds and the horizon, where the last light of day is visible. This really made these clouds pop out!

Was quite surprised to see storms develop out in the western part of Nebraska that day. The cold front had pushed into the state by early afternoon and severe storms were forming. Severe weather watches were posted for Dawson and Custer counties. Storms were moving at 10mph and I had plenty of time to catch up to them from Kearney.

 

Storm warnings for cells in western Dawson county promoted me to position myself to the south of Ansley. Found my favorite road called Box Elder and waited. Impressive Hail Core and developing shelf cloud was just to good to pass up!

I have had several jaunts this year down to Kansas from South Central Nebraska. This would be one of many. We had a moderate risk day, and things were looking good for a good chase day. Though I had time restrictions, and had to work again at 11pm that evening.

 

Though I work overnights and only a few hours of sleep that morning. I had been invited to ride along with with owner and friend Nathan Moore from StormViewLive.com. I wasn't going to miss this opportunity. We have similar interest and we both love to chase. It was to be a good day.

 

The day was a hoot, though the storm chase would turn into a bust... We really didn't miss out. Storms just south of Russel Springs Kansas were firing, but due to my time restrictions we didn't get to the cells we wanted to chase that day. Though this didn't limit my ability to take a few good snaps from that afternoons storms.

Beautiful stacked plates on this oncoming arcus! Crispy lightning to illuminate the night sky! Though it was @ 4:45am

 

I knew this was coming. I had all the gear ready, all I had to do was hop in the truck. Go a few blocks from the house out of the range of the city lights...

 

Again... I couldn't have asked for a better example of early morning light, storm and lightning!

Had to find a better place due to where the storm was coming in from. I had reposition myself right next to the High School football field. Long extended ditch that has a small roadway. Couldn't have asked for a better open sky than this.

 

This storm was moving rather slowly about 10 mph to the due north almost northwest. Outflow dominate, simply meaning this nice outflow. A shelf cloud on the outer rim of this storm as it approached. B E A U T I F U L!

Just south of Ansley Nebraska, this particular cell was under a severe thunderstorm warning and there was good development off to the north and west. Though I was on the outer edge of the north severe cell I pulled off and got a few good captures.

On the open plains of Nebraska...

 

August was a GEM month for severe storm structure. Folks... I didn't miss a beat.

 

Pure Eye Candy this one is. Open air supercells developing right as the dry line passed over us in South Central Nebraska.

 

I wasn't going to get underneath this one though it was close. I could have chased it, but I wanted to get the structure that day. Oh I got what I came for!

 

I had planned accordingly. Knowing that the storm was going to pass as it rapidly developed to the due east. I waited for bit under the hail core before I got into position to capture this storm.

 

Building Billowing Beautiful updrafts on the back side of this storm were memorizing. Perfect Supercell structure.

Storm Chasing Video from that Afternoon on Flickr Click Here

 

Working on Spring projects with the wife. Enjoying our day together. Plans were made & I had no plans for chasing any storms even if they form.

 

Honestly, My time with family succeeds any other activity. I knew there were storms to the south of us this day. But again it was family time. I didn't even look on radar.

 

Finished our projects & went out to the front of the house and my jaw dropped!!! Literally in front of me this incredible updraft on a NON-severe warned storm. This had no warning on it, and I was dumbfounded. Asked... Wife said go get'm Tiger... Rest is History.

 

Storm Chasing is not always about catching a Tornado. This storm cell was already in its dying stages... Finished off this afternoon with some up close and personal shots of this dying thunderstorm!

2023 sure has had a strange weather pattern. Almost a whole month late to our severe weather season here in south central Nebraska. Little would I know that coming weeks I will find what I've been seeking...

 

This was the first severe storm with a warning to come into play. In actuality there were 2 storms. This first storm was really defined & had some good visual rotation. The storm behind it with the intense hail core would steal all of this first storm's energy....

 

Supercell in play... what an epic view this storm had to offer!!!

June 22, 2013 - North of Kimball Nebraska

 

Getting ready to pick up one my best friends in Gering Nebraska. A planned outing of Storm Chasing the Nebraska Panhandle that afternoon.

 

Though I was tired from the 5 hour drive just to get to Gering Nebraska. I just had total hip replacement surgery and was supposed to be taking it easy. Due to the surgery. I had to stop often to exercise. Risk of blood clots on long trips were possible. So I was out and walking around a lot that afternoon.

 

We didn't see it but we followed this cell past Kimball Nebraska and we should have stuck with it. Due to this would have been the Dix Nebraska tornado that day. Now, over 8 hours in the truck that day and I was extremely sore. So after catching some excellent storm captures, we decided to call it day. Figures... 30 mins after we left Kimball tornado was on the ground in Dix.

 

Can't complain though, it was one of the best severe weather photographic opportunities for 2013. Plus I got to chase the Panhandle again. Always worth the time to chase this location and seeing good ole friends to boot.

I was seriously late the game on this storm. But I was never out of the game. I had missed a few of the other tornados that afternoon in Northern Yuma County. Coming from south to north I had to position myself correctly. Chaser Convergence was also in full swing so there were not may open areas to choose from.

 

For best pics of a Tornado and to be safe about it a storm such as this was moving North by Northeast... strategically, you want to be to the south east, southwest for the best light... Behind the RFD (Rear Flank Downdraft) It's all about timing, and I honestly didn't think it would produce a tornado til it was well west of my location. That was going to be the wrong guess... Though when I went due north of Wray I had a good viewing point but not in the safest location as you see.

 

I got lucky this day as...In my opinion, I found a perfect view, looking due south southeast. I ended up on the northwest side of the rotation. Dangerous yes...but this will eventually give me one excellent view of this tornado and all her glory.

 

Staying as safe as I could I wouldn't bail till it was about a mile away then I would head north again to a safer / better viewing position.

 

*** Editor Notes ***

 

Greetings Everyone, I haven't posted many new pics since last chase season and the 2020 Severe Weather Season is upon us. Looking for our first set of storms in the coming weeks and I'll be streaming live and of course some of the best storm photography one could ask for.

 

2020 Update...I've been revamping how I do things. One of those things is to go back and correct how I did my post processing of images. Several Years of over Colorizing over Saturation Adding color... etc. Yes I'm guilty of doing so and I have been going back and replacing thousands of images in hundreds of sets over these past few months here on Flickr my Fine Arts America Site.

 

The May 7, 2016 Colorado Tornado Event was by far one of my favorite chase days to date. I was able to capture the full genesis of a tornado. From birth to death. It was a quest of mine to do this in a photography medium. Epic severe weather structure, like once in a lifetime structure to capture. But post processing was a nightmare. The images came out well ... Defined but over colored over saturated etc.

 

Instead of replacing the images this will be a whole new set with a few hundred new images that I didn't post on the original set back in 2016. I've thought about re-editing these images for a long time and they are finally done. No Altercations what so ever. No Added Light, Color, Contrast.

 

I've brought them directly from RAW. Simply the way I should have done it in the first place!

I had forgotten about this set of images... To be truthful, I also found this micro SD card on the floor of my truck about a week ago. Luckily I didn't vacuum it up after the snowstorm...

 

Went all the way out to Western Nebraska for this chase day. Excellent setup for severe weather on the Nebraska Colorado Border. Though I didn't plan it out correctly to say the least. My timing was off (when does that happen???) when trying to catch this batch of storm cells. Not to be disappointed EVER. I make the most of what's coming my way. If it's photogenic, you know I'll be taking snaps.

 

Hence my drive home from a bust chase day. Happy I am to find this card a with a few gems on it. My last imagery of 2022.

Solo Chase Day & Close to Home....

 

Luv it when the chases are in my backyard. Not having to drive 3 states and 1200 miles in 1 day is relief. I know I'm not the only chaser that says that. This was a phenomenal afternoon of severe weather. When I say this... It means that its photogenic & for the most part not effecting the farms, agriculture, livestock & the human element.

 

Mammatus before the storm, then I decided to bail on this first storm for the next which was to the north about 25 miles. This storm had wicked good rotation under the base. Even though it was high based it was producing some freakin awesome views.

 

The storm had overtaken my position and I had a 40 min drive to get back in front of this storm. It was on my tail the whole way back to the I-80 corridor. Though a little late I was still able to get back in front of shelf cloud. The teeth on the outflow were almost scraping the ground. It gave the effect of a funnel but it was not. Been doing this to long to make sure I know the difference.

 

That was a hoot. Though I waited til the last minute. I got swallowed by the core & had to wait it out. Want to see what its like out in the open with no shelter... This I have also done a billion times. 50mph winds rocked my truck! That was fun!

 

Finally, I blazed it backed to Kearney for this Storms Finale... Beautiful Sunset light illuminates the exiting storm with a Anvil Rain & Mammatus Cluster ... It was truly a Sight to See!!!!

A dramatic sky dominates the horizon with dark, swirling clouds blending into a fiery sunset, casting an intense light over the expansive field below. The scene captures a moment of turbulent weather approaching from a serene farmland, hinting at a powerful storm.

The Hunter becomes the Hunted...

 

(The Good)

Beautiful Structure with this cell. Luv' the teeth it was producing as was gaining strength. This is what I live for... Its one of the main reasons why I chase.

 

(The Bad)

Though at this time I didn't know that the stormcell to my northwest (which we cannot see here this is pointed southwest) was starting to merge with this cell. It would eventually overtake me, even moving due east...believe me when I say it was nasty... it was

 

Tornadic, strong, building, maturing... I sure was at the right place at the right time. (This doesn't usually happen eh) One cannot get these incredible close up shots... just that...up close and personal without being there!!!

 

@ This time... some of my best storm photography for 2018!

Been Waiting since March for a good storm in Nebraska... we have had some but out of my reach due to some vehicle issues. Though just recently this has changed and was able to enjoy this event!

 

The 2020 Storm Season has been stale to say the least. Though Mother Nature... She would redeem herself this day. Beautiful Severe Warned Thunderstorms, with all the extras. Surreal!

 

Decided to play it north deep into Central Nebraska that afternoon. Bad road networks and basically no cell services unless you have a booster, which I have. Models that day had it right north of Brady Nebraska then for it to develop and move north northeast. Some of the models had it a little bit further north and that was exactly why I was in the Thedford Halsey Nebraska Area to start.

 

Though when the storms fired I had a nice TVS warning on this first cell but the storms south which had merged with these storms now and sucking all the energy southward. I had to punch through the core of this first storm to get to the one developing to my due south...The main event for the afternoon.

 

Epic Nebraska Supercell Structure.... Seeing this up close and personal is what I needed! Incredible defined detail as this cell moved northeast. Directly up from the Brady Maxwell Arnold areas. A perfect viewing point out in the open just to the west of Merna Nebraska.

First Moderate Risk in South

Central Nebraska & North Central Kansas.

 

A short jaunt down the severe weather risk area that day from Kearney Nebraska. Arrived in Alma Nebraska a tad behind schedule. The storm was already tornado warned and produced a tornado southwest of Alma. Storm was raging and I wasn't in a good place. Had to core punch this storm & headed east via Hwy 136. That's were this collection of images starts.

 

I was east bound on Hwy 136 that skirts the border of Nebraska / Kansas. This would take me deep into the Moderate Risk for that severe weather day. Instability was visible everywhere out in front of this storm. A Mammatus Cluster with a wall cloud was right in front of me while another supercell was producing tornadoes behind my current location.

 

Wicked Beautiful Supercell Structure as I got up close & personal. Especially by Franklin Nebraska where I encountered my first Tornado of 2022.

 

East then north out of Red Cloud Nebraska. The storms were still producing severe weather but was exiting fast out of my range. End this day with a spectacular view of the backside of the storm. A huge mammatus cloud cluster to enjoy as I was heading home!

 

*** Note...

The Old Man in the Storm

 

Every year, I seem to capture some interesting cloud pareidolia. I call this phenomena The Old Man in the Storm.

 

Can You See Him?

Lightning is the main reason why I chase storms. I'm fascinated by the pulses of light it produces. So by placing myself in direct line of a nasty overnight supercell... It is what I call FUN.

 

This was a spectacle of light & storm. Producing Cloud to Cloud Lightning almost every 3 seconds. It was by far the best night time lightning fest of 2023! So Far....

Received an interesting piece of Fan Mail a few weeks ago. With questions about what do I do when I'm not storm chasing. The author wrote, "Since you live in Nebraska & you only focus on severe weather. Do you ever do any other type of photography & videography?"

 

As a matter of fact I do. (This is the first time I'm ever posting this type of photography content to Flickr). I'm really in all aspects of nature. But the scenic views is what I come for. Took a few weeks off at the end of September to do a bucket list item (get to the top of Pikes Peak). Also to visit my sister & brother that live here & enjoy some quality family time with them.

 

Colorado Springs has some epic views. It was also one of the reasons I took our family's early fall vacation to this area of the US. The seasonal foliage was just starting & the aspens were already turning their fall colors. Those Epic Views is what I was after!

 

Booked our family tickets to the Broadmoor Manitou & Pikes Peak Cog Railway. The Cog has been climbing Pikes Peak since 1891. It was one of the most unique experiences that I've have ever done. This place is recognized as the world's highest cog railroad, The railway is an important part of the heritage of the Western United States.

 

So to the Individual that had wrote me that Fan Mail. Here is your answer. I know I don't post anything but severe weather, however I wanted to give a small sample what other photography interests that I have & do.

 

BTW, I & my wife got Altitude Sickness something gnarly. Took a bit to get over after the event but it was worth every second! Plus it snowed the next weekend on top of Pikes Peak.

Late May 2018, Nebraska, south central to be correct. Some good moisture from the Gulf, with the normal heating of the day can produce these small pulse cells. Though not enough sheer to make any of these severe enough to produce any type of tornadic storm.

 

With no serious storms to chase.... doesn't mean there is nothing picturesque to take. Cells were forming out to my northeast to the southeast. No matter where I pointed my lens that afternoon, there was some incredible stormscapes to take.

6th Year in a row we have had a severe thunderstorm pop in south central Nebraska late evening on the 4th of July. Thousands of strikes and the cloud to cloud lightning was simply breathtaking.

 

This storm crested right south of the I-80 Nebraska corridor, which is just south of Kearney. It was stationary for about an hour and then it pushed a little east before it grew and slowly moved to the southeast into North Central Kansas.

Was quite surprised to see storms develop out in the western part of Nebraska that day. The cold front had pushed into the state by early afternoon and severe storms were forming. Severe weather watches were posted for Dawson and Custer counties. Storms were moving at 10mph and I had plenty of time to catch up to them from Kearney.

 

Just south of Ansley Nebraska, this particular cell was under a severe thunderstorm warning and there was good development off to the north and west. Though I was on the outer edge of the north severe cell I pulled off and got a few good captures.

Day 2 of chasing the plains of Wyoming. With a good chance of seeing what we came for. We had plans in place to be in position early to catch that's days first round of severe storms in Central Wyoming.

 

Moving west via Hwy 26 through Torrington, Lingle, Fort Laramie, Guernsey, then north on I-25 to Glendo where we would stop to watch the scudnado form and not produce.

 

Packed the gear up after this event and moved south to be ahead of part 2 of that afternoon and evenings cells that were to develop shortly after this first event.

 

After the jaunt south to Pine Bluff Wyoming we headed to Bushnell Nebraska. About 15 miles from Pine Bluff Wyoming to watch this next storm build and eventually move west into Nebraska. We didn't want to be under the base of this storm due to the hail core. So we backed off and awaited the storm to develop right at sunset!

I was late to the game on this one after the mesoscale discussion had everything to my east and models had cells developing into northern Kansas. I took the risk and missed out on the eastern Nebraska severe weather that afternoon.

 

Though I was late I wasn't out of the game as I approached from the south back into Nebraska and got into position for the severe warned cells that had just produced a tornado 25 mins before my arrival to my north. Excellent structure as the cells moved to the due south... I was in for a supercell photographic treat!

1st storms for June 2021

 

Moderate risk for this section of Nebraska. As we packed our gear and left about 3:00am to intercept these forwarding storm cells. Yes I said 3:00 am.

 

6:30am ish....Once in position to intercept... They were moving extremely fast and once they moved over our location it was hard to keep in front of them. We tried. Though we eventually have to move south Close to Shelby Nebraska we got the last severe storm of the day!

Nice non severe thunderstorm rolling through south central Nebraska. Some incredible lightning was crawling across the sky.

 

All that rain from that afternoon means no driving on any country roads. Just asking to get stuck in the middle of the night is not fun! I've done it before!

 

Just a few blocks from home I set up shop. Nice lightning captures over the city of Kearney.

Late evening on hot and humid August evening in Nebraska. Warnings popped up about an hour before this storm was even visible to the eye over the horizon at sunset.

 

Spectacular Colors emitting from this stacked supercell. Cloud to Cloud Lightning shooting off every few seconds made this a storm chasers dreamscape.

 

Gear in hand that evening I traveled north out of Odessa Nebraska. Now about 2 miles to the east of Amherst Nebraska. This storm was strengthening and moving almost due south, southeast, meaning it was coming right at my location.

 

It would be a Historic Event to capture! Now remastered to the original color with no enhancements. Enjoy!

On the open plains of Nebraska...

 

August was a GEM month for severe storm structure. Folks... I didn't miss a beat.

 

Pure Eye Candy this one is. Open air supercells developing right as the dry line passed over us in South Central Nebraska.

 

I wasn't going to get underneath this one though it was close. I could have chased it, but I wanted to get the structure that day. Oh I got what I came for!

 

I had planned accordingly. Knowing that the storm was going to pass as it rapidly developed to the due east. I waited for bit under the hail core before I got into position to capture this storm.

 

Building Billowing Beautiful updrafts on the back side of this storm were memorizing. Perfect Supercell structure.
